With great pleasure and honor, the Organizing Committee of the International Conference on Genomics (ICG) would like to cordially invite you to join us for the 19th Annual Meeting of ICG (ICG-19), which will take place from November 21st to 24th, 2024, at the BGI Center, BGI’s Global Headquarters, in Shenzhen, China.
The ICG is a renowned academic event in OMICS, dedicated to fostering academic freedom, inspiring innovation, and promoting cooperation in the life sciences. With the permanent theme of “OMICS for ALL,” the conference has become a global platform for cutting-edge discussions in the field. Thanks to the participation and contributions of leading professionals and pioneers in the bio-industry, the ICG has earned recognition as one of the most significant global gatherings in life sciences. Over the past 18 years, more than 1,500 scientists, including Nobel Laureates, and an audience of over 15 million people from various countries have joined us in witnessing the rapid progress of genomics and life sciences.
This year, we will continue exploring the future of biotechnology and the bio-industry, covering a wide range of advanced scientific topics, from omics breakthroughs to biodiversity genomics, metagenomics, brain science & aging, public health, and precision medicine. Additionally, special sessions will include discussions on Women in Science and Science for Youth, providing broader perspectives on these crucial topics.
In this season of harvest, we warmly welcome your participation in this grand gathering of knowledge and innovation. Let us come together at the BGI Center to contribute our collective wisdom and strength to shaping the future of humanity.
